Software Support for the SoM-5282M

EMAC Software support for the SoM-5282M consists of 3 parts, the bootloader, the OS, and the application level.

 

Bootloader

When the board first powers on, it executes a bootloader which can be used to boot an application or an operating system from flash or the network. By default it loads EMACs uClinux port from flash.

Operating System

EMAC provides a uClinux port for the SoM-5282M which is by default loaded from a compressed image in flash.

The source for this OS can also be rebuild and modified from sources on the ftp site.

Applications

Typically, users would be developing at this level, writing specific applications interface with already developed drivers.

This is done through a high level toolchain available in either Windows or Linux.

An installer exists for the Windows version.
